Lost Without Leaders

(album: The Catalyst Fire - 2013)

I will not be chained here with this in my sight
Feel the shift and changes
A lonely fire
I can hope for one thing
Say the words aloud
A denial burning
Help me justify again
To birth another end
Stay here. I won't look away

I hope that the moment comes
That I remember to let go

The mind begins to tremor
As it starts to burn
For a moment you're awake
It's in your mind

Sinner. I know that the prophets inspired you
You will not be lost without leaders
Know that conscience will guide you
And from this you will grow
I hope that when the moment comes
That you remember to let go

The mind begins to tremor
And it starts to burn
For a moment your awake
It's in your mind then
Dreaming 'bout December
Will it return
From the broken grow the saved

Leader, Conformer, Defier
Make you mind up
Evolver, Defeatist, Controller
Decide who you are
Healer, Defiler, Killer
The silent victim
Heathen, Messiah, Believer
Decide where you stand

Is there hope left in your eyes
Or will you fade away
Is there hope enough to try
Or you will you fade away

I hope that when the moment comes
That I remember to let go

Lead us, Control us, Divide us
Make our minds up
Bleed us, Conform us, Guide us
Shape our lives and
teach us to forgo the answers
And hope for just a little bit
Breed us to fall in compliant
Hoping for a little more pain
We're hoping for a little more pain
